8-ton road rollers are a popular category among small compaction equipment, popular and highly retentive in value. They are also a common choice for post-holiday project commencement. However, the quality of models on the market varies greatly currently, with some assembled low-configurations mixed in, bringing inconvenience to selection. Many workers mistakenly choose inappropriate equipment due to carelessness, which frequently malfunctions later, affecting both construction mood and progress. Therefore, when purchasing such "large-scale equipment", it is more reliable to give priority to models with brand heritage and proven quality tested by the market.

Luoyang Lutong, with 40 years of experience in the industry, has launched 3 models of 8-ton road rollers, covering various types including mechanical, hydraulic, single-drum and double-drum. Integrating mature technology, their performance has been verified by the market and user reputation, which can meet different construction conditions and budget needs, offering diversified options for engineers and construction teams.

Mechanical Single-Drum | LT208: Easy Operation, Suitable for Narrow Working Conditions, Compatible with Traditional Operating Habits

Many "veteran operators" who are used to operating mechanical road rollers have a high acceptance of the LT208, a mechanical travel model. This model adopts a power shift transmission with good vibration excitation effect, and is equipped with a clutch-free control design, which can effectively reduce operation intensity and improve the inconvenient operation experience of traditional mechanical drive models.

The LT208 adopts hydraulic vibration and hydraulic steering for the front wheel, and mechanical drive for the rear wheel. It is equipped with a clutch-free power shift transmission with four gears for both forward and reverse, combined with an articulated frame, which has good climbing performance and high transfer efficiency. Relying on the special vibrating wheel technology, its compaction effect is better than some similar models in the market, which can better meet the requirements of compaction density. The configuration of air-over-hydraulic assisted caliper disc brakes further improves braking stability and ensures construction safety.

This road roller is mainly suitable for compaction operations such as various road repairs, highway shoulders, sidewalks, parking lots and garden lawns. It can also be adapted to construction in narrow places where large compaction machinery is difficult to enter.

Hydraulic Single-Drum | LTS208H-Ⅱ: A Cost-Effective Option, Suitable for Multi-Scenario Foundation Compaction

Hydraulic road rollers have become the mainstream models in the market, with more advantages in operation convenience. The LTS208H-Ⅱ model, while taking into account the advantages of the full hydraulic system, has high cost performance. Equipped with a full hydraulic system, stepless speed change, special vibrating wheel technology and secondary vibration reduction design, it not only has stable compaction effect, but also good driving comfort, and is more convenient for subsequent maintenance and repair.

The LTS208H-Ⅱ road roller is equipped with a Xinchai diesel engine, which has sufficient power, economical fuel consumption and meets relevant environmental protection requirements. It adopts hydraulic vibration and hydraulic steering for the front wheel, and hydrostatic drive for the rear wheel, with a one-lever control design, which is simple to operate, has a low failure rate and good durability.

This model is ideal for compaction operations of various non-cohesive materials. It can also be widely used in foundation compaction of high-grade highways, railways, municipal engineering, airports, ports, docks, dikes and other projects, as well as compaction operations of various industrial construction sites.

Full Hydraulic Double-Drum | LTC208: Rich Configuration, Suitable for Pavement Flatness Compaction Needs

For some working conditions that require double-drum compaction, you can focus on the LTC208, a full hydraulic double-drum model. This model adopts a dual-drive and dual-vibration design, combined with a fork-foot frame. It can be optionally equipped with a crab-walking structure and an air-conditioned cab, with comprehensive configuration. It can also be optionally equipped with an intelligent compaction management system according to needs, adapting to more refined compaction operation requirements.

Dual-drive and dual-vibration means dual-wheel drive and dual-wheel vibration. Relying on the full hydraulic system and dual-frequency and dual-amplitude vibration device, the operator of the LTC208 can flexibly adjust the vibration mode according to construction needs, which helps to improve the compaction flatness and density of the pavement and foundation.

The LTC208 is suitable for compaction of road asphalt concrete, sand-gravel mixture and dry-hard cement concrete. It can be widely used in compaction and leveling operations of highways, municipal roads, parking lots and industrial sites, and is a practical choice for fine pavement compaction.

When selecting an 8-ton road roller, priority should be given to models with reliable quality and suitable for working conditions. The post-holiday project commencement is approaching. If you are still looking for suitable compaction equipment, you may wish to learn more about these 3 8-ton road rollers of Lutong. More comparison will bring more satisfactory choices.
